Concubine Yun was suddenly stunned there, and then she slowly turned around . It turned out to be General and Ye Qingyi . Ye Qingyi was sitting on a soft couch, her face still pale .

"Ge . . . General . . . "

At the sight of General, Concubine Yun couldn't help being afraid . According to the General's expression, she could notice he was really angry . Obviously, it couldn't be solved easily by some of her pillow talk .

"Concubine Yun, hasn't Hu Wei told you that no one is allowed to see Second Lady without my order?" Ye Zuohou said angrily, looking coldly at Concubine Yun who was kneeling on the ground .

"General, we two have informed Concubine Yun . " The guards had already spoken before Concubine Yun replied . Concubine Yun was so annoyed in her heart .  “These two guys are really meddlesome . I will manage to deal with the two sooner or later . ”

"Is it right, Concubine Yun?"

"General . . . Yes . " Concubine Yun's body trembled gently, showing the fear in her heart . If General was angry, even the emperor would avoid bothering him, let alone her . If she told lies at this time, it should be that she really didn't want to live any longer .

"So, what are you doing here, Concubine Yun?"

Concubine Yun didn't dare to say anything . Just now, the General had heard her scolding  the guards, and she didn't even dare to raise her head at this moment . Even if Concubine Yun didn't look up, she could think of Ye Qingyi's appearance at the moment . The girl should be so glad and happy . "General, I knew I did wrong . I am just worried that the Second Lady is too weak, and she will break down after being in this ancestral hall for a night . . . General . . . "

"Oh? Is Second Lady weak? As she has practiced martial arts for so many years, is it all in vain? Facing Qingyi, a girl who has no power and even lacks the strength to catch a chicken, she should dare to attack so violently . If I did not arrive in time, wouldn’t she kill Qingyi?" Ye Zuohou's heart was like being cut by a knife when he thought that he had nearly let Qingyi die . In the eyes of others, his so beloved daughter should turn out to be the meat on the chopping block .

"Second Lady . . . General, Second Lady wasn't intentional . . . General, the Second Lady is also your child . Please let her out and let her apologize to Eldest Lady . " Listening to Ye Zuohou's words, Concubine Yun had a bad vibe in her heart . It seemed that General really made up his mind . She immediately burst into tears .

"Concubine Yun, if I stabbed my sister once with a sword and then came to apologize for it, what would you think?" Ye Qingyi looked coldly at Concubine Yun kneeling on the ground and crying .  “Apologize? What I want is more than only an apology, and this is just the beginning . Concubine Yun, I’d like to see how many tricks you have . ”

"Well . . . this…"

Ye Qingyi's words suddenly made Concubine Yun speechless for a moment .  “The girl is so sharp-tongued, and I fell into the trick . It will not be right no matter what I say . ”

"Don't worry, Concubine Yun . Although being in the ancestral hall is cold, second sister's const.i.tution is definitely better than that of me for her long-term practice of martial arts . Within one day or two days, it will be nothing for my sister . Rather than kneeling here to strive for dad's mercy, Concubine Yun, you'd better go back to your yard first . Otherwise, if my sister came out and then got a cold, it would be your fault by then . "

Ye Qingyi laughed wildly in her heart .  “Weren't you so great? Weren't you trying to kill me? Let me show you today . Fighting against me? I will surely chew you up and spit you out . ”

"No, Eldest Lady, please spare Second Lady . General, please let Second Lady off, please!" Concubine Yun was kneeling on the ground . Although her knees were black and blue, she had no time to care about it . No matter what happened, she could not let Hongling spend the night in this ancestral hall . What would Hongling do if this news had been pa.s.sed on!?

"Well, Concubine Yun, you don't have to be like this . See, how scared you are . " Ye Qingyi chuckled once, with some charm on her face . "Daddy, stop teasing Concubine Yun . You see, Concubine Yun has been scared into crying when you are angry . "

Concubine Yun was a little overwhelmed . What did Ye Qingyi mean?

"Qingyi . . . I think . . . "

"Daddy, didn't you all agree to me? You shouldn't go back on your word . As a gentleman, you should keep your word . " Ye Zuohou wanted to say something, but he was stopped by Ye Qingyi . Concubine Yun kneeled down on the ground, hearing the father and the daughter making puzzling remarks .

"Okay . I will keep my word . " Ye Zuohou looked at Ye Qingyi and smiled . "You two, bring the Second Lady out . Prepare a bench and a rattan cane . "

"Yes . General . "

After listening to the command, two guards went away . The two carried Ye Hongling out a few moments later, followed by two young servants, one with a bench in hands while the other with a rattan cane .

As Concubine Yun noticed that the Second Lady had been taken out, she hurried forward, "How are you, Second Lady? Is it all right?"

"Concubine Yun~~ Dad is so merciless . It should be the Ye Qingyi . . . " Before Ye Hongling finished her words, her mouth was covered by Concubine Yun . But Ye Zuohou had already heard that, and his originally soft expression became a bit livid .

"A’Da, A’Er, press Second Lady to the bench and whip her forty times!"

As soon as hearing Ye Zuohou's words, Concubine Yun fell down to the ground . Forty times! Would Second Lady still be alive? How could General punish so heavily!

"Dad . . . you can't do this . . . Ah . . . dad . . . Ah . . . ah . . . "

Ye Hongling was pressed to the bench by guards, and the rattan cane whipped her fiercely at her b.u.t.tocks again and again . Ye Hongling screamed in pain and wanted to get rid of guards, but how could she get over the strength of the guards?

Ye Zuohou hadn't thought to use the rattan cane . He released her, but she even dared to say such treacherous words .

"General . . . General, don’t let them beat her anymore . . .  Second Lady can't stand it, General! Second Lady is also your child . How can you be so cruel . . . My poor girl . . . "

At this point, Ye Hongling was almost unable to bear, and her face was pale, just like a piece of blank paper . But she still stared at Ye Qingyi fiercely . At the moment Ye Qingyi's appearance was deeply engraved in Ye Hongling's heart . She would never forget the disdain and ridicule on Ye Qingyi’s face,  who was like saying, "You are just a small ant, and this is your end of fighting against me . "

Staring at Ye Qingyi's mocking eyes, Ye Hongling finally couldn't help falling into a faint .  Seeing that, the guard stopped whipping .

"General, Second Lady fainted . "

"Hmm . . . Take Second Lady back . " Turning around and seeing Concubine Yun, whose face was covered with tears, Ye Zuohou suddenly felt a bit disgusted . "Concubine Yun, if you can't do well in managing General’s Mansion, I will not mind replacing you with someone else . If there is any trouble with Eldest Lady again, I will definitely blame you . "

"Qingyi, are you tired? I will let someone take you back . " When Ye Zuohou turned to look at Ye Qingyi, his face was full of coddling . He felt sorry for this child, and he couldn't bear to let her suffer a little bit of grievance . As for others . . . they should never wishfully expect to do so .

"Okay . Dad, don't be angry anymore .
